In "'partial equilibrium "'analysis, the determination of the price of a good is simplified by just looking at the price of one good, and assuming that the prices of all other goods remain constant.

While the issues are fairly technical the basic intuition is that the presence of wealth effects ( which is the feature that most clearly delineates general equilibrium analysis from partial equilibrium ) generates the possibility of multiple equilibria.

:There is almost always an excess burden of taxation ( a dead weight loss in the partial equilibrium demand / supply model ) when a tax is imposed; goods are not quite allocated the way the free market would allocate them.

As defined by George Stigler, " A partial equilibrium is one which is based on only a restricted range of data, a standard example is price of a single product, the prices of all other products being held fixed during the analysis ."

Partial equilibrium analysis examines the effects of policy action in creating equilibrium only in that particular sector or market which is directly affected, ignoring its effect in any other market or industry assuming that they being small will have little impact if any.

Vitalis then worked for a time at the Russian Ministry of Agriculture as part of a team developing a partial equilibrium model to assess the potential impact of Russia's accession to the World Trade Organization on its agricultural sector ( 1999 2000 ).

Jain proposes ( attributed to George Stigler ) : " A partial equilibrium is one which is based on only a restricted range of data, a standard example is price of a single product, the prices of all other products being held fixed during the analysis ."

One of the weak links in the development of these early models was their specification of saving behavior as being exogenous and given by the empirical regularity of the consumption-income relationship, and the various ( partial equilibrium ) theories of consumption spending designed to explain this regularity.

Partial equilibrium models are best to use when examining the use of taxes to influence behaviour, and general equilibrium models ( e . g . the macro formula ) would be best when examining overall taxation . talk ) 22 : 42, 4 July 2009 ( UTC)

Even if the dead weight losses in each of the taxed markets still exist under the partial equilibrium model, but the remaining private sector goods are still allocated in the same proportions as they would have been under free markets, you can still say you have allocative efficiency in the general equilibrium economy.
